So it's late July '41 and I have a 4-0 Tank Div

[FredSanford3]

Should I care? Normally I'd stash a 4-win unit for selective use to gain Guards status. But no matter what, the tank divisions will convert to brigades. Does their win/loss or guards status transfer? I don't think so.

It's 4-win only? [X(] I thought it was a +7 difference. Then I should be harvesting MUCH more guards. Reading this, Marquo? Stockpile the nappies! [:D]

No -there is a maximum percentage of the total number of guards units:

The limit for motorized type units is approximately 35 percent. For non-motorized type units, the approximate percentage limit varies by year as follows:
1941 5 percent
January - June 1942 -10 percent
July - December 1942 17 percent
1943 25 percent
1944 30 percent

You can keep you tear rags.

I did not really pay attention to the Guards conversion rule on the manual. Now I have just read it.

In your case, the Tank Division needs minimum 12 victories (condition one).

Ok, but what happens when the division converts to a brigade?  Do wins transfer?

Yes, if it is an on-map, OOB conversion. However, I'm pretty sure that the win/loss totals are zeroed out in the case of the division getting forcibly converted during a rout>removal>reinforcement cycle.

ATTACK! You might get one of these.

Mike, it's 12 february 1942, how did you get a Romanian unit? Is that vs the AI and you already conquered Romania (which triggers all this stuff)?
